shit tier setup, 2bh. looks like you were playing jenga with your amps
Grayson Ramirez
Why aren't you playing classical guitar? It's beautiful, includes many techniques you've never thought about using, is a great creative tool, and gives you complete mastery over the guitar as an instrument rather than an effects conduit limited to how many pedals you have.
Mustangs are queer. When you play those do you wind up on the lawn, too?
Julian Morgan
I was thinking the same thing He should really plug them into each other
John Cox
>no sweep picking why even bother
Eli Hill
because im shit at regular guitar, what makes you think I can do that kind of playing?
Gabriel Murphy
While i like spanish classical guitar, i don't play it myself because i like making heavy riffs and squealy solos. I leave the classical to just listening to.
Asher Ramirez
I'm going to not be able to play for 3 months. Will I loose some skills ? What can I do to avoid that ?
Mason Walker
Which VST plugins do you recommend? I hear a lot about Bias, Amplitube, and Recabinet
Isaac Barnes
>no floyd rose
pfft no thanks
Austin Perry
It would be a lot of fun challmging yourself. Formal discipline can really help one's ability. youtube.com/watch?v=Ldhh6FrM4H4 Playing 3 octave arpeggios is a real bastard on guitar because of the enormous leaps to be made, but this is one of the closest things to what you're looking for.
Colton Young
Fair enough.
Tyler Mitchell
I've got a cheap classical guitar, will it be good enough to learn some of the basics? I don't think I'll be doing any crazy shit any time soon
Aaron Ross
>Pfft no way fag Imagine classical guitar is a 10/10 curvy woman begging you to finger her and impregnate her with beautiful musical babies. Would you really deny her because she doesn't have a metal dick for you to helicopter?
Dominic Collins
For sure, as long as tuning stability is okay and the temperament is such that it's not offensive to play up to the twelfth fret, you should be golden.
Tyler Ross
>Go month or two without practicing >Hear how I've gotten worse due to lack of practice >Hearing how I've gotten worse sucks out my motivation to practice >Go awhile without practicing >Next time I play guitar I'm even worse and even less motivated
how do I fight this cycle? I had a good six months or so when I started and made alright progress, but then I got a gf and now she sucks up most of my time(we pretty much spend all day every day together) and I never think to practice causing me to get worse at playing guitar causing me to practice less.
What do /gg/, I need help
Jack Morris
force yourself to practice every day
Blake Murphy
dump gf, girls are normies and only impede your progress. i bet she cant even into the circle of fifths
Daniel Richardson
Get her a guitar
Jack Wood
allot time to practicing guitar. set boundaries with your girlfriend and let her know that playing guitar means a lot to you. i dont know man just make it happen and stop looking for someone to make it easier for you. JUST DO IT or don't and get on with your life
Wyatt Gutierrez
all bad advice, kick her ass to the curb. you're always going to be shit if there's pussy around
Austin Howard
I went 2 years without playing, and picked it up again like nothing happened.
You'll be fine. Guitar is like riding a bike, you never forget.

Henry Reed
She had a bass but this one guy borrowed it from her and she dislikes him so much she never tried to get it back because she doesn't want to see his face. but i love her But she's always around and my practice isn't anything to be proud of and I doubt she'd want to listen to it. She's really clingy, and I don't have the heart to tell her I need some alone time, the last time I said maybe she should go home a little early she started crying.
Lincoln Lopez
no you know why old bloozedads just buy a lot of gear and never play.

Christian Hall
When I grow my nails out they snag strings when I go back to using a plectrum. And having long nails makes tapping harder.
Grayson Reyes
so cut your nails?
Brandon Hughes
>there are """"musicians"""" here who aren't married to their guitar >these same """""musicians""""" spend time with females who don't play guitar themselves For what purpose?
I'd rather listen to that kinda stuff than actual classial guitar. It's harder to play too
Parker Scott
What do you two do together? You can't just practice your guitar while she watches netflix or browses social media or something?
Levi Smith
that video proves my hypothesis right that all fat people make shit music
Brody Rodriguez
I have that issue as well, the only solution is to not play with a pick anymore or adjust the height at which you hold the pick, which becomes easier to do as your right hand develops. Didn't notice a difference for tapping really, but I don't play much electric guitar music where controlled rasgueado of some kind didn't suffice.
Xavier Clark
That guys a mad cunt with the thumbpick on the e string
Dylan Price
retarded phone poster >all that pristine gear that obviously never gets played >pedals don't even get stomped on >no closet for your clothes How do I get my priorities fucked up like this?
David Robinson
I do. I mostly play anime OSTs though. Stuff like this:
>harder to play than classical No, nothing in the guitar's very diverse repertoire is which is why I'm going to refute this once and not get into this dick measuring contest.
Jaxon Watson
What are some nice beginner fingerpicking songs to learn?
Levi Johnson
because I don't have one and can't be bothered to learn proper classical technique when I can just slap the shit out of strings, pop them, tap them, rake them and make cooler sounds.
Evan Sanchez
Not to mention i prolly can't do it, and if i could some of the "magic" would be gone
Camden Edwards
Neat

Look at the last tune in that post called "Benga Beat" I think you'll like it. I bet you can, it takes dedication and when starting out it feels like beating your head against a brick wall, but progress comes easier after the initial year.
>muh shredding fat fuck probably shredded into a big mac right after this

In a lot of ways, I'm very glad the 80's are over.

He probably did yeah

So I've recorded few tracks, anyone cares to check out and leave some opinion? It's a sort of classick metal/hard rock I'd say soundcloud.com/spiralmachine

i didnt have the photo problem back in 2012-2013, idk what happened here, it fixes itself on other sites though. > pristine thanks m8, i use the 2x12 for all my amps depending on the gig (small bar vs actual spacious venue) the super champs is for when i go to a friend or bandmates house to jam and one sits on top of my desk. the only thing that doesnt really get used is the olive green mustang since i bought it for the neck and im selling the body or using it for an HH project. some of my pedals are fairly new but they have a bit of scarring, my boss reverb, sparrow and polytune were my main gigging pedals in high school so theyve been beat but the rest are starting to wear in. also thats my specific clothes rack for my ironic t shirts

Alexander Campbell
This. I got this one gf when i was like 16. Until then i was making decent enough progress for the some 2+ years I had been playing. She was into the guitar playing until i guess she saw it got more attention. She gave up the pussy and won the attention battle. >but i love her Me too. I was fucking 16. I'm still with her, and I'm 33. She's almost 9 mos pregant with our 3rd kid. My guitar playing is finally getting somewhere what I'd wanted it to be when i was 16, because i spend most of my free time playing now(which isnt much, an hour or so after work when the kids go to bed) because it saves more $ than going out. She was a keeper cause she bought me gear, even tho I'd hardly use it cuz i was getting laid. That's life. I mean, realistically i prolly made the right choice, because I'd never have been able to buy a house and support 4 other people on a hack guitar player's salary
Elijah Fisher
But I do user, almost all of my music making has been on my classical guitar lately.
Ryder Hill
>Look at the last tune in that post called "Benga Beat" >I think you'll like it. Fucking spot on user. Never thought about partially muting and the strings when doing chords/polyphony, that's inspiring.
Alexander Carter
Whoa! I think this is the dude who sucked my Dads dick when he was a roadie back in the day! My Dad says he was begging everyone to let him suck their dicks because there weren't any gay clubs out in the middle of nowhere when they were on tour. My dad says he got tired of hearing him so he let him do it in the bathroom in a gas station when they stopped one night.
Jaxon Davis
>She had a bass but this one guy borrowed it from her and she dislikes him so much she never tried to get it back because she doesn't want to see his face.
If you don't go get that bass back right now you're a cuck
Ayden Nguyen
Right on, we need a larger palette of original music written for the guitar. The (classical) guitar's repertoire consists of about half arrangements and half original tunes. Granted that's still more music than anyone could play in 100 lifetimes, but more is welcome and keeps the instrument relevant.
Grayson Mitchell
Fucking a chick rotten until she's squealing then passes out when you're done, and sitting on the edge of the bed playing guitar while she snores is probably the best thing ever.
Just wash your hands before you start playing
Brody Nguyen
>not letting your guitar smell like pussy what the fuck
Joseph Myers
You've got it user, it's a very modern idea and Gary Ryan's works are extremely good. Look up some more of his music for extra inspiration. He pushes the guitar to its limits.
Sebastian Taylor
>I bet you can Eh, maybe.. i don't have a classical guitar tho. My gma gave me my grandfather's old nylon string when i was 5. It's one of those no-name chinese ones not worth anything except sentiment. I trashed it cuz 5. i still have it tho... I've been meaning to fix it. Maybe i will now. Thanks

What genres do you listen to?
Mason Jackson
If phone posters were banned from making threads like they ought to be, this sort of shit wouldn't happen
Aaron Foster
Yeah, about that. I just play my own arrangements or transcriptions (not sure which is more appropriate) of lute songs at the moment. I wouldn't know where to begin composing.
Jordan Nguyen
this is a nice colour
Alexander Hall
Lmao. I was going to add "or have a designated guitar just for that" but i erased it. I didn't want to come across as the degenerate i am. On an anonymous board. For some reason
Jose Green
looks like shit
Chase Long

Tyler Nguyen
Well, thank you. The drummer also shares your opinion about his playing. These days I mostly listen to 70s heavy rock stuff, 70s Judas Priest and Hawkwind are my main inspirations.
Lincoln Garcia

Jackson Hughes
Which is perfectly fine, composing is god damned hard. I remember doing some studies on guitar counterpoint. It's not nicely or formally documented like it on the piano because the popular plucked string instrument from every period was for the most part the "instrument of the people" or of the "poor and under-educated." Which is not to say they were musically illiterate, but formal study(and especially a history of it) just didn't happen like on harpsichord/piano/organ. We do have some champions of the guitar though, Mauro Giuliani, Carcassi, Sor, Mertz, Weiss(lute), etc They rarely wrote books on composition.
Bentley Jenkins
shut up faggot, you know it's true. the fact that you post on this site is proof of that
Aiden Ramirez
Classical Gas. Mandatory finger plucking tune. Also it's not very difficult and will teach you some things that apply directly to more difficult songs.
Adam Ortiz
Yeah the denial part for me. I mean, i typed it all out then deleted it.
Connor Sanchez
How so? And he lives out of town now, he's had it for over a year now. It'd be weird if I just popped up out of nowhere like "plz return guitar"
Ayden Garcia
it'd be weird if you even asked, just take it back and never call it a guitar again you stupid faggot
